Alright, so next piece I will build is, hmmm Imma tackle the helmet and make it out of foam, yeah, foam, really test my skills, it will definitely take longer than a day, I will probably tackle a section at a time, probably start at the top and work my way down, hopefully I can do it and brag about it being all foam
 
Change of plans again, back to the helmet because I went to hobby lobby after work today and picked up some 6mm, and 2mm foam, so I still plan to attempt to make my helmet out of foam, probably fail horribly, but I will try, if it's not what I like then Etsy is plan B
Considering your foam skills. helmets gonna be easy for you :ninja:

I second this. The first thing I ever did costume wise or with foam was my helmet. It came out looking like garbage, but it had the shape. Almost half a tub of foam putty later to fill in the gaps and seams, I now have my best looking/most prized/favorite item i have ever made. Judging by your work so far, you should blow this out of the water with ease! Just do what you're doing now, take your time, and think about the cuts. This is gonna be beutiful

Look at me. Now look at your helmet. I did not make that helmet. You made that helmet. You may not like it but we think it is great. Now look at your helmet. Now look at your armor. Now look back at the helmet. Now look back at me. You have very much improved. Look at the helmet. The shape is there and all the detail. There are just a few seams. Now look at your suit. Now look at your odst. You have improved ALOT. Minimal seamage and a whole lot of BA. Not look at your armor parts, now look at your old helmet, now look at your odst chest. Your odst helmet will be amazing. Now look at me. The proof is right there and we are cheering you on. You are doing amazing work that even I am currently incapable of, And I LOVE me helmet ya hear? I'm on a horse!

Love your use of the old spice commercial.
 
Well top half of the helmet is done, it's now pretty, I think I can do better, but I will complete it to see if the other pieces will push it out to its shape, I think it will, hopefully it does, probably have to samd it up a bit to be more rounded. Well here it is at the moment, kinda rushed it, got to excited.

I have no words
 
I decided to just do the helmet last and start on a new scale of my shoulder plate, first one I made to small, same as the second so this time should be all good, but I will do the cool looking shoulder base that Elcorio did for his, then apparently there is a simple bicep piece, then the shoulder plate, and on my favorite part, my sniper/cqc plate added on the left shoulder plate, should look pretty cool, at least it will in my head.

Basically I want everything from the neck to my waist done, then move on to thighs, shins, and boots. And then my skills should be improved for me to tackle the helmet! So I will start at least the base shoulder, the the plates, cool? Also the most I have ever typed in this forum.
